Description Fabio Olive Leite 2015-05-15 19:33:40 UTC 
It was reported to Debian that keepass functions to lock the secrets
database when the desktop is being locked or the machine is being
suspended do not work.

This would defeat the purpose of having such functions, for example if
a laptop is stolen while suspended when it had the secrets database
open. The option should have automatically closed the database in that
case, protecting the secrets.

Comment 1 Fabio Olive Leite 2015-05-15 19:35:05 UTC 
Created keepass tracking bugs for this issue:

Affects: fedora-all [bug 1222120]
Comment 2 Fedora Update System 2015-08-15 02:08:12 UTC 
keepass-2.30-2.fc23 has been pushed to the Fedora 23 stable repository.  If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report.
Comment 3 Peter Oliver 2015-08-16 14:55:28 UTC 
KeePass fails to build from source on Fedora 21 and 22, so I don't think this can be fixed on those versions.  It's fixed in Fedora 23, however.
Comment 4 Fedora Update System 2015-12-02 23:50:19 UTC 
keepass-2.30-2.fc22 has been pushed to the Fedora 22 stable repository. If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report.
